10Pcs/Set Blessed Greek Christian Orthodox Handmade Prayer Rope from Mt. Athos (Komboskoini Chotki) Thin Black with Black Metalic Cross Religious gift Christmas Gift for Men Women (BlacK&Red)

I thought I was getting a blessed by monks prayer rope bracelet. I would like to know what that can be when they come in a package that says made in China. They are VERY small. I bought them for men and women coming to a retreat with me! I am a small 5' tall and 110 lb small-boned woman who can barely fit it over her hand. The knots are so small that it would be difficult to hold one during prayer. Oh well, I should have checked the reviews.

Great simple Chotki. They shrink back to size after being stretched. Very durable.

These prayer “ropes” are made from plastic, not rope. And the label clearly states, “made in China”. They are also very small. Only a small child would be able to fit this over the hand and wear on the wrist.

I like the quality of the bracelet but I don’t understand why description states from Mt. Athos but package states made in China.

The packing envelope read NEW MADE IN CHINA!

I doubt they’re blessed or from Mt. Athos, but they’re nice to support a Sunday school lesson or give as a gift to a small church school class.

The black color is traditional and unobtrusive, allowing the focus to remain on the prayer itself. The ropes are the perfect length for holding and using during my prayer sessions, whether I'm at home or on the go.In addition to their spiritual significance, these prayer ropes make wonderful gifts. I've already given a few to friends and family members who share my faith, and they were deeply touched by the gesture. The fact that the set includes ten ropes means I have plenty to share, spreading the blessings and beauty of these handmade items.Overall, the 10Pcs/Set Blessed Greek Christian Orthodox Handmade Prayer Ropes from Mt.
